About this audiobook

Experience the Austrian Witch Trials through Authentic Stories and Spells



Uncover a hidden world of European folk magic preserved within trial documents from the Austrian Alps. Christian Brunner reveals nearly fifty spells and the captivating stories behind them, offering a rare glimpse into the lives of the accused. He also teaches you how to adapt these workings for your own modern practice.



Explore translated testimonies and enchantments originally recorded between the Renaissance and the Age of Enlightenment, a time before the Brothers Grimm standardized German grammar. Using the defendants' and witnesses' own words, Brunner paints a vivid picture of Alpine witchcraft, including the pressures, tensions, and influences of the times.



With riveting details about the witch trials and advice for making historic Alpine spells your own, this is an essential resource for those seeking to connect with the past and harness its wisdom.
